I only wish I could donate more to the cause! The more I think about what the evil empire did to me back when mythos was creating beer makes my blood boil... If only I had the smarts and balls like Glen back then.
How many license holders and AOC holders in Oz? Say $10 from every license holder, $1000 from every AOC holder what does that come to? (Yes I am far to lazy to ask Siri).......
It is up to Dick if he wishes to support Glen's cause or not, he and no-one should be pressured.
Getting Glens story and the required funding for the legal battle, should Glen still wish to proceed (he still has a family that is a very high priority). Is more important than an individual or just some sectors of aviation getting involved - it will take planning and a strategy to move forward to a battle with CAsA.
A well drafted letter to all aviation sectors could be a good start and some suggestions could be to airport fuel suppliers X per litre for X period, charter companies X per charter hour, scenic ops X per seat sold, Maintenance X per Hr charged, airports x per landing/parking and similar.
If the X is small but repetitive, the end result will be large.
